$3500 floor standing speakers used. What would be your choice ?


My speakers are 25 years old, working fine for now, but who knows I might have to replace them at some point in the future.

The amp would be VAC Avatar SE 60 watt/ch all tube with onboard phono stage. Nottingham Analogue Spacedeck/Spacearm turntable and couple of tape decks.

I am thinking Proac maybe or whatever.

That would make things more complicated and probably more expensive. Integrating subwoofers can be a challenge. I like coherence. But theoretically yes, I have enough room for that.

60 good tube watts is not little at all for a medium size room. The amp sounds quite powerful with the current speakers.

A few years ago, based simply on the many glowing reviews, I bought a lightly used, $17K pair of bird's eye maple GamuT L7 speakers for $4K. Powered by a pair of Pass Labs XA-160.5 amps. I'm very happy with my purchase. The tough part is that I've only seen one other pair come up for sale since then. Good luck and happy listening!
